Oricon: fashion surveys

Oricon recently conducted a survey of a thousand women ages 20 to 35 who expressed an interest in fashion. The survey had several questions, and Oricon has published some of the results on its website.

One question asked the women which female celebrity looks best in animal prints, which have recently been catching on as a fashion trend. Hamasaki Ayumi was voted #1, followed by rival Koda Kumi, actress Sugimoto Aya, model Kanda Uno, and actress Sawajiri Erika.

Another pop star, Amuro Namie, ranked #6. The rest of the top ten were models: Kinoshita Yukina, Umemiya Anna, Tsuchiya Anna, and Rinka.

In another part of the survey, Oricon asked which beauty was best suited for boots. Here, Amuro enjoyed the #1 spot, repeating her performance from last year when the same question was asked. Model Yamada Yu moved up from #6 to #2, while Karina jumped one spot to #3 and Rinka climbed from #8 to #4.

Meanwhile, Hamasaki Ayumi dropped from #2 last year to #5 this year. Also on the list were Ebihara Yuri, Koda Kumi, Kinoshita Yukina, Mizuki Alisa, and Oshikiri Moe.

A third section of the survey posed the question, “whose face would you like to have?” The cute but fierce looks of Shibasaki Kou earned her the honor of #1, followed by young actress Miyazaki Aoi. Amuro Namie also appeared on the short list at #3, while Hamasaki Ayumi tied for #4 with Takeuchi Yuko.

Canon New Printer PIXUS

Actresses Aoi Yu (23), Yamada Yu (24) and Kaho (17), have signed on with Canon to promote its new printer PIXUS.

The media, of course, were more interested in Aoi’s reported relationship with V6 pop group singer Okada Junichi (27). They were photographed sharing umbrella and they were carrying grocery bags. An article claimed that they spent the night together at her place.

Aoi said, “I like taking photos and showing them to my friends.” Asked about her love life and if she takes Okada’s photos, she declined to answer but just smiled.

Yamada, who has already told the media about her relationship with actor Oguri Shun, didn’t answer any private questions either.

The new commercial featuring the three will air from Oct 3.
